The new version of the text desktop environment vtm v0.9.69 introduces an experimental mode for continuous synchronization of the current working directory among active text consoles.
Synchronization is achieved using OSC 9;9 terminal notification tracking, which contains information about the current directory, followed by generating keyboard input for the entire group of consoles with the active Sync mode switch. By default, the keyboard input template is represented as the command cd n, indicating the current directory obtained through the OSC notification, with a preceding space to prevent this automatic command from entering the shell command history. If necessary, this keyboard input template can be modified in the environment settings. It is not recommended to add text consoles with sessions from different operating system subsystems or remote connection sessions to the synchronization group.
The implemented approach is compatible with popular command shells and console file managers, such as bash, zsh, cmd.exe, pwsh, Midnight Commander, and Far Manager (starting from version Far Manager 3.0.6274.3708).
The text desktop environment vtm is a cross-platform environment designed to run console applications in floating windows within an unlimited workspace, organizing mouse event routing and keyboard input, allowing shared access for an arbitrary number of users, locally or over SSH.
